I actually grabbed an episode this week, hopefully for a future piece.

Lee Jones

You thought about doing a piece on The Sunday Show?

The actual Spirit of Dark and Lonely Water was the grand headmaster of every school.

For a good a couple of decades British teacher training must have been based on a theory that kids learn best when they are shitting themselves.

"Why are the Brits so dang weird?!" [looks back on 80's schooling] "Oh, right."

Stuart Millard

Cheers, James, glad you liked it.

Humiliating having to Google a reference like that. I feel this big | |

I sometimes worry today's kids are missing out on similarly dark and formative school's programing, but then I remember they're growing up in an actual dystopia on a dying planet.

That's not even the most disgusting thing in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7VzIzXgXak

Never forgotten the shock of the B-bomb dropped by Charlie in Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

John Churchman-Conway

The tensions of the bad family dynamic coalescing into an almost tangible presence would no doubt have chimed with many young viewers. The father was an entirely malevolent and destructive force. Genuinely unsettling viewing.

Ross Patrick

Excellent. Could only be more hauntological if the crying old woman on the TV suddenly screeched "That's fizzy!" (Extremely niche reference that possibly applies only to me)

Lee

That was perfect, thanks. I don't remember Interference (but certainly remember sitting as a class in front of The Boy From Space and Dark Towers)

As someone the same age, with the same interests and the same cultural touchstones, even from the same part of the world, I had never heard of Interference until this video. Loved it, thanks!
